The Appeal Of The Gold Miner Game

By Joe Robertson


More and more people are connecting to the world wide web. As technology advances, even remote locales are developing internet capability. The more people connected to the internet, the greater the opportunities to come into contact with all sorts of new things. Video gaming in particular, has benefited tremendously from the spread of the internet. Because users are now capable of playing games online, things like the Gold Miner Game are gaining in popularity.

There are an incredible amount of video games on the market today. Subjects range from far-flung space operas, to pinball simulations. Sports titles available are as diverse and varied as you could possibly ask for. In fact, it is reasonably safe to say that most topics one can think of are being explored.

Traveling through, and fighting within space have always been popular gaming subjects. But, for every title centered around fighting of some kind, there are thousands that don't go anywhere near combat. Dancing, swimming, karaoke, and chess are all subjects available from different platforms. Role playing games are also popular.

The introduction of the internet transformed the gaming experience forever. For years, it was only ever possible to play games individually, or against a single opponent. Plus, whoever you were competing against had to be in the same space as you, right beside you. It was impossible to play people in other places.

With the advent of online gaming, everything changed. The person you are playing doesn't even have to be in the same country anymore. The impact can even be felt in games that are non-combative. Playing certain games is all about getting the highest score. After a while, you're competing against yourself to beat your high score. Now, players end up competing with high scores set by people all over the place.

The online aspect also mostly eliminates the need for arcades. One has but to log in from anywhere they can get online. Many titles have technologically progressed to the point where the level of realism is stunning. Some of them look like the trailers for action films with ridiculously expensive budgets and crazy visual effects.

Of course, some people go for simpler, less fancy titles. For some reason, many of the simpler games seem to be curiously addicting to people. In some cases, a simple title will proceed to become more complex over time as it gains in popularity. This generally happens through spin off titles and upgraded versions.

Gold Miner Game is an example of a simple style title that is steadily evolving. In the 'classic' version, you use a claw to reel in nuggets as fast as you can. It requires a bit of accuracy, a bit of strategy, and some speed. Since the first version was released, several further titles have been developed. There's a Vegas version, a two player version, and several others where additional features have been added to each edition. It's like watching a system evolve and become more complicated before your eyes.
